We want to specify flags when hotplugging memory. Let's prepare to pass
flags to memblock_add_node() by adjusting all existing users.

Note that when hotplugging memory the system is already up and running
and we might have concurrent memblock users: for example, while we're
hotplugging memory, kexec_file code might search for suitable memory
regions to place kexec images. It's important to add the memory directly
to memblock via a single call with the right flags, instead of adding the
memory first and apply flags later: otherwise, concurrent memblock users
might temporarily stumble over memblocks with wrong flags, which will be
important in a follow-up patch that introduces a new flag to properly
handle add_memory_driver_managed().
